Art is simply how an artist perceives the world at any given time. The only limitation is imagination but beyond that nothing so anything labelled as art is art regardless of anything else. And it comes from the mind or the soul [ the non metaphysical type ]

So the art object above "tells" us that a certain artist who perceives the decline.

If it affects you in some way, if it speaks or reveals the truth of something, even if only one's own subjective truth, if it causes you to question life or to see something differently, from another angle, it is Art, to me.

I can say that Art comes from the psyche.

Art is ALSO an image of the self trying to express and to make sense of the world around us.

I wouldn't have that on my wall - art is a personal preference - but it is very thought provoking and also poignant to me.It can make one wonder what it is/was that the artist is trying to say? That could be different for everyone.Things are not always to be taken at face value.Delving into a particular work of art can be like an archaeological dig - much to be revealed.

Perhaps it came from the same place that philosophy came from...simply put, trying to figure things out. lol
